1. Runaway (1984)

   Michael Critchon (of Jurassic Park fame) brought us this little bizarre tale of a detective and spider droids, and the KISS rock star who planned it all..

   About the time Tom Selleck was making the jump from Magnum P.I. to films, he decided to go from a private detective in Hawaii to a futuristic police officer who tracks down rogue robots (watch out, Tom, Crow and Gypsy).

   Anyway imagine if someone took I, Robot, spliced it with the backdrop to 'Demolition Man,' and then put in the grizzled cop from 'Blade Runner' (but with a kid) and you'd have this movie.

   Oh, and the chick who played in RoboCop in this one as well.

   Here's the spiel, famille on this synopsis: somewhere in a Jetsons/Blade Runner future, robots do practically everything for people. But because things aren't always flawless, Jack Ramsay (Ramsay? Man, what was up with these names?!), belongs to a specialized police force that deals with rogue robots. Mainly by shutting them down with their special guns that emit electromagnetic pulses. Usually it's a normal day for Jack, until a mysterious outbreak of robots going murderous occurs (doncha hate when that happens).

   Mysteriously, the only clue Jack has are these mysterious spider droids that kill their victims by injecting acid into them (no seriously). Especially those who know something about why these mechanical wonders are becoming homicidal, mechanical wonders.

   Turns out Gene Simmons, aka Luther, (yes, Luther and NOT Luthor) is some sort of twisted genius who plans on making robots go nuts and slaughter mankind for his own enjoyment because he wasn't loved as a human... or something to that effect... and now has targeted Jack's son for some reason. Bizarre, isn't it? Not target the powerful men, nor government officials, or even the cops that can shut down the rogue robots, but Jack's son... talk about flawed plans, but hey, when you were a rock star, guess you can do anything, eh?

   Here's why RiffTrax should riff this film:

   1. Hilarious overdone premise: Ever since Metropolis, we've seen films where robots usually turn on their human masters, but in this case, they don't just go rogue immediately.

   2. Gene Simmons: Strange how I've never seen Mr. Simmons out of makeup, and the fact it's the first time he's played a villain, but from what you see, it's quite obvious. You know, how the producers want you to think he's not evil, but you know he is, and everyone is oblivious to it, except for the hero, who--after wasting several minutes of film--discovers he's not quite the 'good kid next door.'

   3. The Spider Bots: The funniest killer robots since The Daleks, for the fact nobody can actually crush these things and they just sit there and let them inject them. Whereas Tom Selleck goes through a dramatic scene with them, and when Gene deals with them, he just freaks out rather than swatting them off. Seriously, you could just throw an EMP bomb at them, but nobody thinks these things can be defeated and like the Daleks, they just keep on coming regardless.. in fact they used them in the trailers and promos for the film itself, even though you don't see them much in the film itself. Except when they're offing someone who keeps attempting to warn Jack about them, or they're just being a total pudhball in the film.

   Though I couldn't locate the full film (damn YouTube), I did find a trailer for it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lA6ybohAVq8

6. Venom (2018)

   Are you looking for less chemistry than a defunded high school science lab? Then Venom is the movie for you! I literally couldn't tell if the woman in Brock's bedroom at the start of the movie was his girlfriend or his sister. Either way it is equal unpleasant to watch them kiss throughout the movie. PLEASE riff this movie. It's a strong contender for worst Marvel

   Also featuring:
   -Non-sensical science jargon
   -Holding guns sideways with one hand to look cool
   -Inspirational speeches that couldn't sell water in the desert
   -Bible references
   -Alien hosts who contort like the exorcist and melt like the wicked witch
   -Tom Hardy...up a tree
   -Tom Hardy... in a fish tank
   -Tom Hardy doing some genuinely weird things pretty convincingly
   -"Pile of bodies, pile of heads"
   -Zombie people going on road trip
   -A level boss as scary as his converse shoes
   -Dramatic pauses
   -Running... and screaming
   AND SO MUCH MORE!

8. Jaws 5: Cruel Jaws

   Look this up, it is on youtube. This is by far THE WORST MOVIE I HAVE EVER SEEN. It's called Cruel Jaws, or, if no one is paying attention, Jaws 5: Cruel Jaws. This movie is pure rip off mid nineties cheese! There's a whiny glasses guy, and a fake Hulk Hogan, and Florida Mullet Cops, and a villian so greasy, Gorgo wouldn't be able to digest him! Local Hulk Hogan impersonator and generic wheelchair girl run a dolphin/sea lion petting zoo in super-90's Florida Keys, and all hell breaks loose when a crooked condo builder yuppie and a maniacal claymation shark team up to ruin the wind surf regatta! AMAZING CHEESE! This needs Mike and the bots help to make this terrible, fun movie watchable!

14. Repo! The Genetic Opera

    This film is the could have been Rocky Horror. It's a movie perfect for riffing but also a film that needs your exposure. I know this email won't do much, but I'm literally asking you to make fun of my favorite movie of all time, a key part of my identity. Please consider it.

15. Popeye

    Please riff the Robin Williams' "Popeye" movie, if possible. It has the making of a good movie, but It's just so weirdly executed, that I think it's perfect Riffbait.

16. Blade Runner

    Ridley Scott's 1982 sci-fi classic starring Harrison Ford. Scott's directing style really lends itself to riffability, I feel like the guys could have some real fun with this one.

17. The Town That Dreaded Sundown

    You can't watch this movie and not feel like it's missing a riff track. It's as if it were made by insightful people in the 70s to provide the perfect target for Riff Trax.

    Description: Hilariously bad 70s horror flick set in Texarkana, Texas.

18. Steven Spielberg's Hook

    A film both good and bad, well made, and over-budgeted to a ridiculous level. Robin Williams learning to fly! Dustin Hoffman winning the heart of a young child! RU-FI-O! RU-FI-O!

19. Conan the Destroyer

    Wilt Chamberlain having to preserve the virginity of a princess and Grace Jones as a warrior thief. Did I also mention that Tracey Walter is the worst comic relief in a fantasy movie ever?

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kgxhEq8w9xw

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frankenstein_Meets_the_Space_Monster

    All of the women on the planet Mars have died in an atomic war, except for Martian Princess Marcuzan (Marilyn Hanold). Marcuzan and her right hand man, Dr. Nadir (Lou Cutell), decide they will travel to Earth and steal all of the women on the planet in order to continue the Martian race. The Martians shoot down a space capsule manned by the android Colonel Frank Saunders (Robert Reilly), causing it to crash in Puerto Rico. Frankenstein's electronic brain and the left half of his face are damaged after encountering a trigger-happy Martian and his ray gun. Frank, now "Frankenstein", described by his creator as an "astro-robot without a control system" proceeds to terrorize the island. A subplot involves the martians abducting bikini clad women...
